The Spanish goalkeeper has reiterated the belief that the criticism that he has faced thus far in the English Premier League has only propelled him to become a stronger individual for the current Premier League champions...
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-de-Gea-c10463 has said that the criticism that he faced at the start of the season whilst playing regularly for Manchester United has only confirmed his belief in himself and also encouraged him from working hard for his place in
the first team line up at Old Trafford.
The young Iberian shot stopper has been under fire from several quarters ever since his arrival in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Spain-c3011 as his ability to deal with long balls and crosses into the penalty area have been touted him as his major weakness.
De Gea has had his moments of uncertainty but the youngster has showed time and again that he is more than capable of dealing with the demands of the English Premier League.
Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 has thus entrusted him with the responsibility of being the number one goalkeeper at Manchester United despite heavy competition from the likes of Andres Lindegaard. The Spanish goalie has slowly won over the fans and
his finest performance for Manchester United came in their 3-3 draw against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 at Stamford Bridge when he pulled off a last minute save from a thunderous free kick by Juan Mata to rescue a point for the league champions.
De Gea said, "I did receive one or two bits of criticism at the start of the season. But it only serves to make you become a stronger person and encourage you to keep fighting and working hard. The important thing is to not let
it get you down. It can almost be a positive thing. You can turn it around and through the hard work I've waited for my chance and grabbed it."
He added, "I wouldn't point to a particular incident in the game [as the turning point] but the time I spent on the bench when I was out of the team I could reflect, think hard and regroup. I started working harder to come out
of that spell. It made me more determined so when I did get that opportunity to get back in the side I grabbed it with both hands.”
